Using a B1 with the S1 Pro or S1 Pro+ is not recommended. Consider using a Sub1/Sub2 as these were designed to be compatible with the S1 Pro/S1 Pro+

=== The B1 Designed for L1 not S1 Pro/+ ===
The Bose B1 Bass Module was designed for the L1 family of systems, not the S1 Pro or S1 Pro+. The S1 Pro+ provides a full‑range line output, while the B1 requires a dedicated low‑frequency signal and a matched amplifier to operate correctly.

For simple, reliable bass reinforcement, the Bose Sub1/Sub2 is the recommended companion for the S1 Pro and S1 Pro+. It connects directly, includes the correct crossover and protection, and provides deeper, more powerful bass with no extra gear required.

For bass reinforcement with the S1 Pro or S1 Pro+, the Bose Sub1/Sub2 is the recommended solution. It includes internal DSP, limiting, crossover management, and a built‑in 480 W amplifier, and accepts a full‑range line‑level signal directly from the S1 Pro/S1 Pro+.
